The Metrology Engineer will ensure the accuracy and precision of measurements used in product development, manufacturing, and quality control, contributing to the overall quality assurance process. 

Responsibilities:

• Analyze measurement systems, including statistical process control, (SPC), uncertainty analysis, and error analysis to ensure reliability and accuracy of measurements.
• Participate in the creation of manufacturing process and equipment qualification validation plans, validation protocols and reports, and their implementation. 
• Perform routine calibration, validation, and troubleshooting of precision measurement instruments and equipment, including but not limited to CMMs (Coordinate Measuring Machines), laser scanners, gauges, and various other tools.
• Train and mentor junior engineers and technicians on metrology practices, calibration techniques, and measurement equipment. 
• Maintain accurate calibration records and ensure compliance with regulatory standards.
• Document measurement results, deviations, and corrective actions in detailed reports. 
• Provide technical support to the manufacturing and production teams in selecting the appropriate measuring techniques and equipment for specific applications. 
• Assist in root-cause analysis for measurement related issues. 
• Participate in the creation of supplier process and equipment qualification validation plans, validation protocols and reports, and their implementation. 
• Work closely with R & D, quality, and production teams to ensure measurement systems meet design specifications and quality standards. 
• Contribute to continuous improvement and recommending solutions to increase measurement precision and efficiency. 

Education & Experience: 

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related field. 
• Relevant certifications in metrology are a plus (e.g., ISO 17025, Six Sigma).
• Minimum for 5 years of experience in metrology, quality control, preferably in a manufacturing or industrial environment. 
• Experience with automation in metrology systems preferred. 
• Experience with virtual metrology and the integration of measurement data into manufacturing systems preferred. 

Skills & Abilities:

• Proficient in the use of advanced metrology tools and equipment (CMM, optical measuring systems, profilometers etc.)
• Strong understanding of measurement uncertainty, error analysis, and statistical techniques. 
• Strong understanding of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerance (GD&T) ASME Y-14.5.
• Proficient in metrology-related software (e.g., Calypso, PolyWorks, Geomagic, Minitab, etc.), with advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint).
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, with the ability to identify measurement issues and implement corrective actions. 
• High attention to detail and precision, ensuring that all measurements and data are accurate and reliable. 
• Knowledge of advanced manufacturing processes (e.g., additive manufacturing, CNC machining, etc.).
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team. 
• Strong organizational and time-management skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities. 
• Ability to adapt quickly to new technologies and methodologies in a fast-paced environment.
